np: R Kelly- ignition

my chem test is due tmr, and i have a bio test on monday...but what did i spend the last 2 days doing? suntanning on south lawn, thats what. and what am i doing tonight? playing poker in jun shen's room. oh my God i should be chained to my desk. i've been procrastinating so badly...i have a spotless toilet, kitchen and carpet,enough clean underwear to last me from now til i graduate, more groceries than i can eat, but NO KNOWLEDGE OF GENETICS!!!!

met up with sand, pei and kerrin today on south lawn for lunch, the sun, daidee, bridge and to catch up. perfect afternoon after the horrible physics lab in the morning. my partner is crazy..he's been going on for TWO WEEKS about how he's gonna come to phys lab on september13th comepletely hung over from science ball, which is the night before. i'm like OK I GET IT, YOU'RE GOING TO SCIENCE BALL AND YOU'RE PLANNING TO GET MIND-NUMBINGLY SMASHED! I GET IT! NOW DO THE FUCKING EXPERIMENT SO I CAN GO HOME!!!

and not to be mean, but his type don't really look like the drink-like-a-fish-til-i-get-smashed type .more like the flat-on-the-floor-after-1-drink-cos-i'm-a-sissy-and-i-cant-handle-alcohol type.i mean, he was wearing a sweater on south lawn yesterday!! A SWEATER?? i was sad that i couldnt take off MORE of my clothes-it was that warm.you know,come to think of it, i dont even know his name. oh well. no big loss.

yesterday was festival of nations at uni. its a little carnival in north court where different ppl from different countries set up stalls with their respective local food/drinks/games....i nicely whacked some calamari, a ramli burger, a milo dinosaur and thai fish cake with ariane, jarrod and sand. i was so full after that, but it all tasted great. ok the milo dino not so much, but after mixing in the milo powder it was better. bloody KSS wouldnt gimme a member discount. that one ah! since the cedar days man! as if milo is so bloody ex. tsk.

went grocery shopping after school today with sand. my God the basket was so heavy i wanted to kick it to the counter. but got some nice fresh chicken and egg to make fried rice, which turned out quite good, but a little burnt. and i almost got stabbed by my falling knife and knocked out by my falling plate...but its all good, i lived to tell the tale. my kitchen is just too small la...you cant cook a proper meal, there's just not enough space. on the weekend i shall make pasta with garlic and pesto sauce. this new almost-domestic-goddess thing is actually quite nice.if only i had a proper oven. i feel like baking. its therapeutic, even if all my stuff usually comes out under or overcooked.

man united vs sunderland this saturday. oh maaaaan i cannot wait i cannot waaaait! roy keane's coming back! :D :D :D

i feel like cutting my hair...its seriously long as hell.almost the middle of my back already and i just cut it about 2 months ago. but i dont trust the hair-dressers here...they find it difficult to cut asian hair.

i am dying to dance.and swim. i think in spring holiday i will take up some classes at the uni gym. kickboxing, hip-hop or maybe aerobics. and i will find a swim suit and go to the pool. but i need nice thighs la. how ironic, i wanna get in shape so i can go exercise in spring.

oh oh BIIIIIIIIIG NEWS! anita may be coming up to melbourne in spring for about 5 days. GAAAH I'M SO EXCITED! sand and i will take her shopping, and to nice little cafes and to the beach.

the temperature tmr is hitting a maximum of only seventeen.and next week's supposed to be cold too. POO!!! bye bye south lawn.

np: when the stars go blue.

i have no idea why, but i just cannot sleep. its fricking 445 in the morning, and i've been awake since 3, which means i slept for only 3 hours just now. i have bio lecture at 8. there's gonna be one BIIIIIIIG coffee with my name on it later. i must say though, vogel's honey/hazelnut clusters at 445am is pretty damn awesome.decided to blog, cos i havent updated in more than a week.

i've been back for a month and a bit now. and ive done nothing but party/go out/have fun. in the words of tyson ritter(that sexy beast): it ends tonight. mid semester tests start next week for me. chem actually starts today, but it's a week long take-home test...essentially making it a NON-TEST, though of course they want us to be disciplined and have integrity and not refer to our notes. bugger off la, every international kid paying 25k a year will be sitting with their textbook,lecture notes and/or A level notes next to them when doing the test so they can get that extra 5% of free marks in their final grade. confirm plus chop. and tons of the locals will be doing it too.

i will have 2 ACTUAL tests on september 3rd. physics and bio. poooooo. genetics and electromagnetism. what shit la. thats ALOT to study. which is why i've decided to cut out the partying. last night's poker night will be my last long night out until tests are over i think(occasional dinner with friends/the sister excluded). i actually won last night, with a little help from sandhya's bro sanjeev. was seriously gonna lose when i let him play for me and went to eat the dessert that came with our AWESOME INDIAN TAKEAWAY FOOD (classic curry-best indian food + best looking indian boy in melbourne HAHA). ya then after he left, i seemed to have damn good luck and won...5bucks, not much, but its cash none the less.

helped sandhya set up her printer yesterday. step1: TAKE IT OUT OF THE DAMN BOX!! hahahaha...but it dint work on her com cos she's got Windows Vista which is like, too high class for the printer or smth.so that was that...at least its up and running with ink in it. i'll never forget her reaction when i first turned on the power : EH got lights all! yay!

HAHAHAHA

its been a pretty good week. last wednesday sand's dad was in town and he took us all out. haha he and the chinese waitress were totally at war over the tea, which was basically boiling water. it was daaaaaaamn funny.thursday night was awesome possum night. just me, sandhya, classic curry(where we discovered the hot cashier) and chais. good view (both human and inanimate HAHA), good food, and great company. perfect night. friday estelle had a little french themed housewarming. croissants and wine was the order of the day. we kinda got kicked out of the building for making too much noise, but it was all good. saturday was drinks with mel, esther and liz. and we went to papa gino's for dinner. yummmmy pizza. sunday was spent with the sis and we discovered a very nice coffee place tucked away in a little side street.

this week's been really busy so far. got ALL my labs and tutes this week so its been hectic and stressful. but its all over and next week's quite slack, which is good cos i need time to study for bio and phys.

parents have decided that the sis and i are to go to mumbai for a month in summer hols....we're planning to negotiate it down to 2 weeks. haha seriously, we dont know anyone in mumbai, WHAT TO DO THERE...i wanna go back to sgp. speaking of holidays, i want to go to hobart in spring with my awesome possum and spend a few days with our tasmanian devil, (she's really durning into a devil....naughty naughty anita!).

navleen says:
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
navleen says:
you and i both

HAHA.men.

what has happened in the week since i left you last? i saw my uncle HOORAY. and then...there was a national day party where i dint get to watch the parade, got beer spat onto my feet, drank 2 cans of coke in about 90 seconds, and had an overall boring time.and then...i finally went to the school pub, but only stayed for half an hour. aaaaaaaaaand thennnnn, ok seriously my life is damn boring la. i dint do anything. i finished designing my damn plant, i went with my sis to see my dad's friend's family and have lunch with them...which was actually really fun and not as shitty/awkward as i thought it would be.

the highlight of my weekend was EPL starting, but man united could only manage a draw. 1 man up, 72% possession, 25 shots on goal. we should have walked away with at least 4 goals. but instead we only got a point. very very disappointing. but nevermind, there are 37 more games.

tmr i finish at ELEVEN!!! and i have a date with sandz on thursday night. life is looking up!

np: queen - bohemian rhapsody

there is something to be said about the power of girlfriends. how even tho you're miles apart, talking to them online still feels like they're right next to you. its not exactly the same, but it feels like it. its comforting to talk to the ppl who know you inside out, who've known you for years, who dont judge or criticise and who are ok with just listening and then offering their advice/words of comfort/humour.it'll be even better if i could get a hug, but what can you do. so...to my girls, you know who ya'll are. i love you.

had an alright weekend. friday night was bhangra night. it was much more fun than i thought it would be. shopping with jema and grace in richmond on saturday. not a great saturday night, and indian food with the sis and HK on sunday. THAT was good stuff. lamb, fish, veg curry, 2 naan and 1 plate of rice along with mango lassi for 13 bucks. i was stuffed to the brim. and the place is so close to my house. anyone wants to eat indian food? call me.

i should start studying. i wasnt thinking about school during the first 2 weeks of term, and i've fallen behind somewhat. got an assignment due on monday and reading to do for bio and phys labs.anita and i are lamenting about our lack of self discipline but at the same time we're chatting online about brazilian waxing. but now we're off to study. really. we are. shut up.

np: radiohead - high and dry.

wow 2 weeks of school have already passed. phys lab is still a waste of time. bio lab is still the only lab that makes sense and my flora and fauna tutor may or may not be a sarcastic bitch. i'll let you know when i know her better. my phys tutor thinks he's damn cool but in reality he's a little bit irritating. bio tutor is a gem of a woman and my chem tutor is the bomb.

had my first chem lab on tuesday. we were working with menthol and i had the mother of all blocked noses so i basically shoved my head in the conical flask everytime the demonstrator wasnt looking so i could breathe in the menthol and clear my lungs. worked to a certain extent but i dunno what other chemicals i was breathing in, so if i suddenly grow another pair of eyes or another head ya'll will know why.

had a greaaaaaat weekend before that. friday since i finish at 11 i met sandhya and pei lien for lunch and i had my first souvlaki. it was damn good. went to vic mart to shop for the mexican party that night. we walked around in sombreros and streamers holding tequila and lemons after that. if we had done that in singapore somebody would have called the cops.haha.

met jema and grace to grocery shop after which we hung out at my house for what seemed like hours, just talking, singing, lazing around...it felt so good to be with them again. made my way to sand's at around 930. the party was damn fun from start to end. just damn awesome fun. went to the lounge for a bit after which we went back to estelle's to play poker til about 430.

had a girl's night(or morning) in until sunrise when we walked in the rain and cold to a little french patisserie to get croissants and hot chocolate for breakfast. shopped with the sister later and bought GORGEOUS LOVELY AMAZING nine west flats, plus some much needed new bras. sister's bf was very kind to follow us without complaining.and they bought me flowers!! AWW. i love em. they're dying but im resolutely watering them and keeping them on my desk. there are about five left standing but i dont care. haha.

finally replenished the ink in my printer so i'm furiously printing 2 weeks of lecture notes as i type out this entry. i spent 59 bucks on ink sia! HEART PAIN!

yesterday i spent a great night hanging out with sand at her place. estelle wanted us to go for her cocktail party(which i passed on the way to sand's place. the guys were looking DAMN hot in their tuxes) but we couldnt afford it so sand made sandwiches, i brought the much craved PODS plus the classic movie bend it like beckham and we had an awesome possum night just vegging out on her couch, plus talking to her mum on skype, which is a real pain in the ass, as my family will tell you.

got home at about 1230 and slept like 4 hours before i had to get up for school today but its all good cos i just had 3 lectures and now i'm off for another weekend of FUN! i wanna see the simpsons.i cant believe melissa doesnt really like it. the simpsons are the best cartoon.ever.
